The Eternal Egypt web site includes an unprecedented experience of high-resolution images, three-dimensional reconstructions of Egyptian monuments and antiquities, as well as virtually-reconstructed environments, panoramic images, and panoramic views of present-day Egypt captured by robotic cameras located from the top of Karnak Temple to the streets of Old Cairo. An innovative, interactive map and timeline will guide Eternal Egypt visitors through Egypt's cultural heritage, while a "context navigator" presents the complex relationships between objects, places and personalities of Egypt's past in a unique, web-like display.

eWriting: ESL Writing SuccesseWriting, a fully online ESL writing lab program in six levels, increases students’ writing competence, preparing them to pass the writing section of exams such as the College Placement Test, to write successfully, and to compete for grades with native speakers of the language in college-level classes. The final eWriting product is a six-level, multimedia, modularized, content-rich, competency-based, interactive, online ESL writing lab program with over 250 one-hour lessons. It was developed at Miami Dade College (MDC), and is currently used by approximately 10,000 students per year. The content of the online materials encompass the six levels of writing objectives that have been developed and refined over the past 30 years at MDC. Course materials have been designed and developed by MDC faculty with help from graphic designers and technology experts. -----------------------------------------------------eWriting was developed at the Kendall Campus of Miami Dade College (MDC) in Florida. The overall goal of eWriting is to significantly improve the writing skills of ESL students by creating a fully online writing lab program in six levels. The Learning Objects cover ESL writing competencies as well as grammar, sentence skills, and paragraph development. The flexibility of the eWriting program design will permit instructors to create and customize a writing curriculum by selecting the objectives that meet their students’ needs. They can opt to deliver the material over the Web, in a lab setting, or in the classroom using the materials as a full course or just course support. Each ESL lesson, or Learning Object (LO), is a one-hour, self-contained unit of on-line instruction that teaches one discreet learning objective. An LO does not link out to other lessons, nor does it depend on other LOs for instructional purposes. Each LO presents the students with up to three segments of instruction. Each segment consists of a movie, followed by a print lecture, self-tests, interactive activities (including cloze, crossword, multiple choice, fill-ins, drag/drop) and a final writing task. Targeted prescriptive feedback is provided to ESL students for each incorrect guess they make on activities throughout the lesson. The material is designed to appeal to all learning styles. The upper four levels of eWriting are appropriate for both native and non-native English-speaking high schools students as well as College Prep students.

After reading "A Sound of Thunder," students will further investigate the impact of the "butterfly effect" as it pertains to a nonfiction piece (a news story from China) about the dwindling bee population and its effects on the pear industry. The US bee population has dwindled in the last few years, too, and a second video documentary on Colony Collapse Disorder allows students to make inferences and predictions about the impacts of bee loss on the US economy, too.Students will then be able to investigate environmental issues of their own choices and research them using a variety of print and digital research tools. For more specifics, please contact me at connie_young@kernhigh.org or the email address listed here.

This site aims to create a basic toolkit for students of Chinese history and culture by offering select annotated entries on internet and print materials on China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and the Chinese diaspora, as well as learning modules and an introduction to China-related resources at Boston College and in the greater Boston community. The "Culture and History" section in particular places an emphasis on modern society and history, offering a guide to web resources and a set of standalone tools and documentary study units (the Historian’s Toolkit.) The study units are built around a 1929 calendar advertisement and installments from the Dianshizhai Shanghai illustrated newspaper of the late 19th century.
